Other than the usual niggling by boilerman, jphelan, and couple long-forgotten posters, this forum did a pretty good job way back in 2008 of predicting that today would come.
One poster named "crokedrive" really nailed it. Here's crokedrive on November 5, 2008 (the day after President Obama won his first term):

There is no doubt in my mind that eventually the Supreme Court will rule that bans on same sex marriage are violative of the 14th Ammendment. In the future homosexuals will be granted the same rights as everyone else, as they should. It took us a few hundred years to free the slaves. Another 60 years more to give women the right to vote. Another 50 years more before we even integrated schools and lunch counters. Enlightenment on things doesnt always come quickly, but it eventually comes. One day our descendants will look back on how stupid and bigoted these arguements against same-sex marriages were and look upon us with disgust.
